Me three! Cry Wolf is a beautiful song and Stevie's delivery is spectacular. I don't understand why more people don't feel this one. Probably one of my top 3 that she didn't write. I finally heard the Laura Brannigan version and Stevie's version blows it out of the water and made me appriciate the song even more.

Me four! This was the only song I liked at first listen on OSOTM. I like lots of other songs on there now, but still. Lots of people really don't like it, though. I think that's strange, it's a very simple, straightfoward, pretty song.
I like Branigan's version a smidge better, though. To my ears, it has more quiet pathos.

Really? I'm shocked. I listened to the both of them back to back last night and here was my assessment - The keyboards in Laura's version are so much cheesier, if that makes sense. The production on Stevie's sounds a lot more professional to me and they seemed to have done more with the song. Vocally there is no comparison in my mind. Stevie sings it with such conviction. I really feel like she is singing this song with a certain person in mind and perhaps that is why she picked it to be on her album. I didn't get that feeling from Laura. Maybe I'm just a little biased here . Interesting to hear that you like Laura's better.

Either way the song is simply divine and I'm so glad you love it as well. Wish more people did.

Ha, i think the production in stevie's version is much cheesier. They did do more, both production wise and vocally - In this case I think I just think less is more. But I love them both. I love the way Stevie sings "Waaaaaaaaahnce to often", whereas Laura merely sings "Oooooonce to often"

With six unbelievable votes "Kick It", the first of the "bad bridge" songs to leave the island

"So what is this...when you can
What is this...what about me
What is this...(What is this)
I understand...(I understand)
What is this...I'm lonely...I'm lonely...(I'm lonely)
"


is waited for in Egypt and needs to find the meaning of love and surrender. Gawd knows how this one got out so early- I still have no idea what the hell she's talking about in this song. And here I thought that "Welcome to the Room... Sara" would follow her sister Whasssamatta Baby in a Tango duet.

Kick It ontheEdgeof17
Kick It golden braid
Kick It Dreammms
Kick It Johnny Stew
Kick It CreepingDeath
Kick It amber

Welcome to the Room… Sara vermicious knid
Welcome to the Room… Sara GateandGarden
Welcome to the Room… Sara macfanken

ROUND FIVE
The list:

Affairs of the Heart
Cry Wolf
Desert Angel
Docklands
I Sing for the Things
I Still Miss Someone (Blue Eyes)
I Will Run to You ** left the island in round 2 **
It's Only Love ** left the island as a tie in round 3 **
Jane
Kick It ** left the island in round 5 **
Listen to the Rain
Love Changes
Love's a Hard Game to Play
Rock a Little (Go Ahead Lily) ** left the island in round 1 **
Sister Honey
Sometimes It's a Bitch
That Made Me Stronger
The Nightmare ** left the island as a tie in round 3 **
The Second Time
Thousand Days
Two Kinds of Love
Welcome to the Room… Sara
When I See You Again ** left the island in round 4


Let Round 6 begin!!
